Thumbs up Yet another Prop for Dr. A.

I've tried a great many diets. Before Atkins, The best I've ever done was lose about 10 lbs over a period of 6 months of a strict diet and daily exercise. Ultimately, The diet killed me. There was no way to stay hungry 70% of the day for a long period of time. Within 6 months, I gained it all back. I even tried slim fast (what a joke that was). Then a pastor at my church told me how he's lost 75lbs and literally saved his life using atkins. After that, I had to see if it would work. I started by just cutting out things like Soda and bread. Kept my carb intake pretty strict. That alone made a huge diffrence and I started noticing a diffrence. So I started on the full program. In almost 2 months, I've lost 25lbs. I'm thinner than I have been in a LONG time, I'm still about 40lbs away from my goal weight, But I know its simply a matter of time. I don't worry about not having the will, because I'm not hungry. I've lost the cravings for carbs, which makes this thing sooo easy. A couple people uninformed on the Atkins plan have expressed concern, but, You can't win everyone. Anyway, It's best thing out there for weight loss. Period.
